I spent many years driving 35-60 miles one way (2 different jobs, hence the range). It was a BEATING, that I adjusted to.

Then I got a job 7 miles away. Sometimes I see kids and families, but not all that much. I can still work a 10 hour day, and only be out of the house for 10 hours and 15 minutes.

It's awesome. Do it if you can.
